2. Scope
This Privacy Policy applies to visitors to the BioQuinTech website and to individuals who contact us with general business, partnership, supplier, or service enquiries.
This website is provided for general company information and initial contact purposes. It is not intended for the submission or processing of client datasets, patient information, health or genetic data, clinical records, passwords, confidential project materials, or other sensitive information.
Where BioQuinTech enters into a client, supplier, research, or other commercial engagement, additional privacy information and contractual terms may apply. Any processing of scientific, research, clinical, technical, or project data will be assessed and documented separately for the relevant engagement.

Please do not provide patient information, health or genetic data, confidential datasets, passwords, financial account details, or other sensitive information through our public contact form or by ordinary email. If a proposed engagement requires a secure exchange of information, BioQuinTech will agree an appropriate transfer method separately.
4. Special-category data
The public contact form is not intended for patient, health, genetic, biometric, or other special-category data. Please do not submit this type of information. If special-category data is received unexpectedly, we will restrict access to it, assess whether it is needed, and delete it where it is not, in line with our retention practice.

9. International transfers
Our website is a static informational website hosted by GoDaddy. General enquiries sent to contact@bioquintech.ai are processed using Microsoft 365, supplied through GoDaddy.
GoDaddy, Microsoft, and their authorised service providers may process limited website, technical, account, or email data in countries outside the United Kingdom. Where UK data protection law applies to an international transfer, the transfer must be supported by a legally recognised mechanism, such as UK adequacy regulations or appropriate contractual safeguards, together with any additional protections required by law.
This section applies only to personal data processed through our public website and general business email. It does not describe the processing or transfer of client, scientific, research, clinical, medical, genetic, or project data.
Where a future engagement requires data to be transferred or processed, the methods, locations, providers, security measures, retention periods, access controls, and legal responsibilities will be assessed and agreed separately for that engagement. These arrangements may be documented in a contract, data-processing agreement, security schedule, or other written instructions.
10. Retention
We retain personal data collected through this website only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected and to meet applicable legal, accounting, security, and reporting requirements.
- General enquiries and related email correspondence are normally retained for up to 24 months after our last meaningful communication with you.
- If an enquiry leads to a commercial relationship, relevant correspondence may be retained as part of the applicable business and contractual records for up to six years after that relationship ends, or for a longer period where required by law.
- Limited website and security logs may be retained by us or our hosting provider for the period reasonably necessary to operate, secure, troubleshoot, and protect the website.
- Cookies and similar technologies, where used, are retained for the periods described in our Cookie Policy or cookie-preference tool.
We may retain information for longer where required by law or where reasonably necessary to investigate an incident, resolve a dispute, or establish, exercise, or defend legal claims. When personal data is no longer required, it will be securely deleted or anonymised.
Retention arrangements for client or project data are not governed by this website Privacy Policy. They will be agreed separately for each applicable engagement.
11. Security
We use appropriate and proportionate technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure, or access.
These measures may include access restrictions, account security controls, secure transmission methods, service monitoring, logging, backups, and the careful selection of service providers. Access to personal data is limited to people and service providers that require it for legitimate business purposes and are expected to handle it confidentially.
No method of transmitting or storing information can be guaranteed to be completely secure. This website and contact@bioquintech.ai are intended only for general business enquiries.
Please do not submit patient information, health or genetic data, project datasets, passwords, confidential records, or other sensitive information through the public contact form or by ordinary email. If a proposed engagement requires information to be transferred securely, BioQuinTech will agree an appropriate method separately.
If you believe that personal data provided to us may have been compromised, please contact contact@bioquintech.ai .
